'The Missing Evidence" new play by Mrs. Annie E. Birdsall, will be produced at the New Haven Opera House on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week under the immediate personal supervi- sion of F. F. Mackay. It is expected that the play will make decided hit. This will be the first time the play has been publicly played. Dr. John Miller and others or the faculty of Princeton college, to whom the manuscript was submitted, spoke very high ly of it's literary merit, while MT. Maekay, viewing the subject from entirely differ- ent standpoint, thinks it has the qualities necessary to popular success. The mounting and costumes are vary elegant. A host ot Brooklynites will atte. the initial perform ance Miss Charlotte Thompson is the heroine,

A REMOVAL.
\ Rreeze At The Young Mems Insti.

A Breeze At The Young Mems Ensti-
 Quite stir has been created among the
 membership of the Young Mems Institute
 over the fact which became known yesterday
 that the library committee, acting under the
 authority of the directors, have concluded
 to dispense with the services of Miss Todd as
 the librarian of the Institute, and much re- gret is being expressed at this step. Many denounce it as uncalled for and an unwise move. Among the lady patrons of the In stitute, who are |. numerous body and seem to think they ought to have some voice in the Institute affairs, there is much dissatis faction expressed at the action, and much sympathy for Miss Todd. who nas had charge as librarian since 1869. Judge Henry E. Pardee, who seems to have ehampioned the movement which has resulted in the edict for the dismissal of Miss Todd, said yesterday:
 'We went no ill feeling about this matter, we simply have made up our minds that Miss Todd is not able to do all of the work that should be done. Our negotiations with the city put us back a year in number of reforms which were before contemplated. The library should be rearranged and a new call catalogue made. I do not mean a sci enti6c catalogue, but plain, old-fashioned catalogue by which we shall know what we have. The vote to remove Miss Todd stood nine for removal to five against, and several of the five feel as the majority did" At a meeting Wednesday night T. Atwater Barnes was chosen secretary in plaee of Rob- ers E. Baldwin, who saw the approaching storm and resigned. He is strong friend of the retiring librarian.
 Said a gentleman: The removal of Miss Todd, it is stated, was made despite strong protests from the Institute membership, and it remains to be seen whether real improve ment will result. If nothing better comes from the change than has come from other attempted reforms, it will be good policy to return Miss Todd triumphantly 10 her place again.

The public's favorite commedian Tony Hart produced "Donny ybrook" romantic musical eomedy-drama written expressly for him, at the New Haven Opera House last evening. A fair sized audience attended and frequently applauded the many witticisms and delightful songs of MT. Hart. The com pany was good one and was fully up to the requirements of the play. Miss Belle Stevens took the part of 'Kate O'Grady," his sister, very acceptably. Miss Gertie Granville as ''Nellie Brady" "Con's" sweet heart, acted her part very acceptably.

The ciearmakers of the city, it is said, still persist in remaining in both organ izations. A strong protest will, it is said, be made in different local assemblies against the enforcement of the rule of the executive board. Already, according to the reported statement of leading member of the Cigar makers union, two of the New Haven as semblies have discussed the order of the SUI perior officers and have registered vote of protest against sach dicration.

"cAuGHr IN A CORNER D

There was large audience at CarlPs Op- era House last evening to see MT. M. B. Cur tis in his latest snccess, Caught in a Cor her." The play represents the troubles and trials of certain members of the Chicago | wheat exchange, and although sems of it's situations quite improbable, yet 1t is in teresting and funny from the first to the last. Mir. Curtis impersonation of the "Ye- hudah' banker is as clever as his well known ''Sam1 of Posen." The company is much stronger one than those which have support as ''John Stuart' and MT. Moore as "James Holloway, deserve special mention for their fine acting. MT. William Stafford, who used to appear here in Hamlet" and other Shakespearean roles, made an excellent "Richard Sharp" and Miss Josie Dell as Bob" made very pretty office boy notwithstanding the fact that she got choked trying to smoke a cigar ette Miss DeMer as ''Henriette Verne" di- vided the honors of the evening with the star. The applause was frequent, and while MT. Curtis was on the stage the laughter was incessant. The play will be repeated this afternoon and evening and is sure to draw large audiences
 ADELAIDE PHELPS MEMORIAL CONCERT.
 Everything betokens that the Phelps ben eft concert at Carll's next Monday evening will be highly enjoyable The aggregation and varieties of talent for the occasion, ow- ing to the many kind responses to invita- tions to assist and the large array of voices in the chorus, render it a prominent local event. Much public interest prevails regarding it and the worthiness of the cause in view ap peals strongly for a most liberal patronage. The prospects are very encouraging for very pleasing result.

PROSPECTS FRIGHTENING,

Although there has been tempo.
rary suspension of the work OF the
Ala. d Tenn. R. R. between this place
and Trenton, the corps of engineers
are now surveying and locating be,
tween here and Lexington, Tenn, and
we have every assurance from the
head officials of the road that Just so
soon as they can get iron, and the
weather in the spring will admit, the
road will be pushed to completion.
Everybody is inspired with confidence,
and the outlook to-day for the future
OF our town and surrounding country
is brighter than ever before.
A number of our enterprising citi>
zens have. formed building and loan
association ond applied for a charter.
This is something that the interest Of
the town needs more, just now, than
even new railroad. Scores of appli-
cants for residences, none for rent, and
capitalists are, or have been, loath to
invest in tenant houses before this.
We confidently believe, if this enter.
prise is supported by our citizens, that
it will far exceed in enhancing the
towns interest the most sSnguine ex-
pectations.
So let there he no crOakers, but all
put shoulder to wheel and move our
little city rapidly to the front, where
it is, in time, destined to 60.
